MTV is offering a number of different streams on Twitter to ask fans to decide which stars they'd like to watch.
Viewers will also be able to follow backstage and go behind-the-scenes during the show's biggest moments.
The VMAs are typically held in New York, though they have also taken place in Los Angeles, Miami and Las Vegas.
